And one hot name that adds more conviction to the list is US singer Ariana Grande.‎ Almost exactly a year ago, Grande released her first album, Yours Truly. And over the past 12 months, the 21-year-old former Nickelodeon(an American TV channel for kids and adolescents)star has transformed from a pop artist you might recognize to an outstanding superstar. She now possesses three top 10 singles in the current Billboard Hot 100 chart, an impressive opening performance at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, and millions of followers on social networking sites.‎ Her second album, My Everything, which was released on Aug 25, is the latest sign of her coming dominance. It hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart this week, making her the only other female singer after Scotland’s Susan Boyle to have two continuous No. 1 albums in a single year.‎ Grande’s strength lies in her powerful voice and wide voiced range. Unlike her ‎ companions Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato, Grande’s star power is rooted in the fact that she can really sing. More importantly, Grande knows how to control her voice, which is at once strong and sensitive, and use it to expand her musical territory.‎ My Everything is the best example. In this album, Grande literally tries her hand at everything：dance music, R&B jams, hip-hop tunes, power ballads and even’ 60s-inflected pop.‎ While you can clearly sense her ambition as a singer, you will be impressed by how effortlessly she handles these different styles of music, especially if you have listened to Yours Truly, a more refreshing’ 90s R&B—influenced project.‎ Of course, one suggestion for Grande’s future music would be for her to display more personality instead of simply showing her voiced talent. But not to worry, based on what we’ve heard thus far, it's safe to say Grande is well on her way to growing into her own.‎ ‎4．Which of the following contributes to Grande’s great success?‎ A．The impressive opening performance.‎ B．Her followers on social networking sites.‎ C．The influence of ‘60s pop and ‘90s R&B．‎ D．Her powerful voice and wide voiced range.‎ ‎5．We can conclude from the last paragraph that Grande_________.‎ A. likes to show off her voice B．is a promising superstar C. lacks her own personality D．has difficulty going further ‎6．What can we learn about Ariana Grande?‎ A．She prefers hip-hop tunes in particular.‎ B．She used to be a pop star in a TV channel.‎ C．She has two top 10 singles of Billboard’s Hot 100.‎ D．She is the only singer to have two No. 1 albums in a year.‎ ‎7．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?‎ A. A Rising Music Genius B.The Music Market of Women C. Susan Boyle and Her Companions D. Different Styles of Grande’s Music C When I was a boy there were no smart phones, and our television only got one channel clearly.Still, I was never bored.The fields, hills, and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground.I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake.At the backside of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before.It was full of muddy tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.‎ I walked on and on for hours.I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear “Turn around and head back home”， but I was stubborn, so I walked on.There was still neither a car nor a house in sight.I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared.I didn’t want to end up trapped on this road, and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.‎ I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me.My heart was pounding and my legs were aching.I was almost in tears when I turned one last curve and saw something in the distance.It was a house that I recognized.I jumped up and down and laughed out loud.It was still over a mile away but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time.I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner.‎ I remembered this recently when I saw a sign that said “All roads lead home”．It is true.In life, all roads, no matter how they twist and turn, can lead us home again.What is important, though, is how we travel them.Are we going to go forth in fear or are we going to go forth in faith? Are we going to make this life a terrible trip or are we going to make this life a joyful journey? The choice is ours.‎ ‎8．Why did the author hardly feel bored when he was young?‎ A．Because he could have fun in nature.‎ B．Because he could watch TV all day.‎ C．Because he had many friends.‎ D．Because he used to explore the old dirt road.‎ ‎9．How did the author feel when he was exploring the dirt road?‎ A. He thought he would be scolded by his parents.‎ B. He felt contradictory in mind.‎ C. He thought he would be trapped in the woods.‎ D. He was unconscious.‎ ‎10.What does “something” probably mean in Paragraph 3?‎ A． Doubt. B． Hope. C． Courage. D． Fear.‎ ‎11．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?‎ A．Always make choices on our own. B．All roads lead home.‎ C．It’s our attitude that matters in our life. D. Every effort is worthwhile.‎ ‎ D We’ve been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us. We want to be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy. Over the years, there have been several solutions to this from fixed standing desks to adjustable ones, portable desks to ones that change into shelves.‎ However, the most high tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called The Stir Kinetic Desk. The desk learns your daily behaviors and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving without interrupting your work flow.‎ You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule. If you tend to sit while returning emails in the morning, but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call, the desk will learn those regular habits and adjust the schedule to fit them. Of course, the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touch screen on the lower left comer of the desk.‎ When switching positions, the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up. If you’ re not ready to switch positions at that time, you can tap the touchscreen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer.‎ The built-in touchscreen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you’ve burned. You can even set goals for how long or often you want to stand. The desk also works with fitness devices like the FitBit to track your movements.‎ All of that smart tech doesn’t come cheap though. The M1 desk, which is the everyday model, runs a steep $2, 990, while the more executive model with added ‎ features, the F1, goes for $4, 190.‎ While expensive, it’s worth thinking of how much time we spend at our desks. Much like a good mattress(床垫), a good desk that works with you is worth the investment. Hopefully in a few years these smart, integrated desks will be more common and less expensive.‎ ‎12．The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed to_______.‎ A．help users with their work B．keep users moving all the time C．get users to exercise while working D．remind users of their working schedule ‎13．Which is the feature of the touchscreen of the desk?‎ A．It can tell users when to change positions. ‎ B．It can track users’ changes of positions.‎ C．It can keep users in a fixed position. ‎ D．It can detect users’ health condition.‎ ‎14. Which of the following can best describe the desk?‎ A．Productive but challenging. B．Convenient but unaffordable.‎ C．Complex and impractical. D．Mufti-functional and intelligent.‎ ‎15. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph A．To spend money on such a desk is rewarding.‎ B．We should get such a desk as soon as possible.‎ C．It won’t be long before the desk is widely used.‎ D．Desks play a very important role in our daily life.‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Volunteering is a great way to support an organization and make a difference in your community. It can also be an opportunity to meet new people and learn new skills. 16． And what should we plan for?Here's a guide for beginners.‎ Step 1: 17．‎ Do you want to help the world, or your community?
